Authentic French Crepe Batter

I modified the ingredient amounts of a crepe recipe that I found in a French recipe book.
If you add the milk in gradually rather than all at once, it will help prevent lumps from forming. Also make sure to only add the butter a little at a time too! Recipe by BUNNYMOM

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Combine the flour, sugar and salt in a bowl.
- 2
Add 300 ml milk and the eggs and mix well until no longer lumpy.
- 3
The resulting mixture should be quite thick and sticky.
- 4
Add the rest of the milk 100 ml at a time, mixing it in thoroughly each time.
- 5
Melt the butter in a microwave and drizzle it into the mixture while stirring. If you strain the mixture once before adding the butter, it will turn out even better.
- 6
Cover the batter in cling film and leave it to sit for 30 minutes. I tend to leave it overnight if I can.
- 7
Grease a frying pan or an electric griddle with a very thin layer of oil and cook the crepes on low-medium heat. When the edges have browned a bit and are coming up from the pan, flip the crepe over and cook it for a further 5 seconds before transferring it to a plate.
- 8
Chill the crepes well and eat them for dessert!

Delicious Crepe Batter Delicious Crepe Batter
I've loved crepes since I was little. I researched the ingredient combinations, the way of mixing the batter and the way to get a nice crepe pattern, to make what I think is the ideal crepe.If you mix the ingredients in order with a whisk, you won't need to sift the flour to get a smooth batter. Once the oil starts to disappear, the pattern won't be so pretty, so add more oil after cooking the 2nd/3rd crepe. Recipe by Tomusuke cookpad.japan -
Simple & Delicious Crepe Batter Simple & Delicious Crepe Batter
This is a crepe batter that I really like and have been making for a long time.Once the crepe has been flipped, just cook it for a short time so that it doesn't burn. If you plan to fill the crepes with sweet ingredients, they'll taste better if you increase the amount of sugar in the batter. If you are using a non-stick pan you shouldn't have to use too much oil (at least if nothing is sticking). Recipe by Yuuyuu0221 cookpad.japan -

This is not my recipe. I learned this recipe at Gino's Culinary Studio in NY. This recipe makes several crepes, about 15. You can either cut the recipe down or save the already made crepes in the fridge for use later. Pacman -

Do you also like chocolate crepe? 😊Please follow my Instagram @jenscookingdiary (Indonesian recipes) or @jenscookdineandtravel (English recipes) 🙏🏻 jenscookingdiary -
French Crèpes French Crèpes
I love these with vanilla yogurt and peaches inside. But they're equally delicious with syrup, or cinnamon & sugar, or almost anything else you can conceive of!Also amazing as savoury crèpes for dinner, but you'll want to leave the sugar and vanilla out then, and maybe throw some herbs in instead, depending on what your intend to have as fillings.Loonieburger

When You Need Just a Little Crepe Batter When You Need Just a Little Crepe Batter
I wanted to make some crepe-wrapped ice cream for my family, so I worked out the amount of ingredients I would need to make just enough crepes.Mix the vegetable oil in well. Be careful about how hot the frying pan gets. If you double the amount of ingredients I recommend using 1 large (approx. 60 g) egg. Recipe by Maakunnookusan cookpad.japan -

Basic Crêpes Sucrées Basic Crêpes Sucrées
At first I was adding sugar and butter to my crepes (as in the basic recipe), but at some point I realized they tasted fine without it, so I omitted it. Now I make my crepes with or without butter depending on the toppings I'm using (I do not add any sugar).When I'm using whipped cream or fruit as toppings, I cook these simple, light-colored sugar crepes until lightly golden brown. (This is just my preference.) They're fine without the brandy, but it adds fragrance to the finished product. Add as much butter as you like. Recipe by Yukiline cookpad.japan -
I Finally Did It! Batter to Make Springy Crepes I Finally Did It! Batter to Make Springy Crepes
The crepes from my son's favorite crepe stand are so springy and delicious. I thought I would be able to make them at home. So I tried making them with cake flour, rice flour, with different egg amounts, etc. and had my son taste test them numerous times. Finally my son & I agreed that this is the best!This is a precious parent and child collaboration recipe.If you don't have strong (bread) flour, you can use cake flour but it won't be as springy.The brandy is basically only used for the fragrance, so if you don't have any it's perfectly okay.If you don't have any vanilla oil you can use vanilla extract, but I recommend the oil for recipes that are cooked. For 8 ~ 10 crepes. Recipe by Hamumaki cookpad.japan
